When an unfinished generator-iterator is garbage collected, PyEval_EvalFrameEx is called with a GeneratorExit exception set. This leads to funny results if the sys.settrace function itself makes use of generators. A visible effect is that the settrace function is reset to None. Another is that the eventual "finally" block of the generator is not called. It is necessary to save/restore the exception around the call to the trace function. This happens a lot with py3k: isinstance() of an ABCMeta instance runs def __instancecheck__(cls, instance): """Override for isinstance(instance, cls).""" return any(cls.__subclasscheck__(c) for c in {instance.__class__, type(instance)}) which lets an opened generator expression each time it returns True. Backport candidate, even if the case is less frequent in 2.5. ........ r58968 | georg.brandl | 2007-11-14 05:59:09 -0800 (Wed, 14 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Remove dead link from random docs. ........ r58971 | raymond.hettinger | 2007-11-14 14:56:16 -0800 (Wed, 14 Nov 2007) | 1 line Make __fields__ read-only.

Update the docs to reflect a previous change to the function name. Add an example to the docs showing how to override the default __repr__ method. ........ r58976 | raymond.hettinger | 2007-11-14 18:55:42 -0800 (Wed, 14 Nov 2007) | 1 line Small improvement to the implementation of __replace__(). ........ r58977 | raymond.hettinger | 2007-11-14 18:58:20 -0800 (Wed, 14 Nov 2007) | 1 line Fixup example in docs. ........ r58978 | raymond.hettinger | 2007-11-14 19:16:09 -0800 (Wed, 14 Nov 2007) | 1 line Example of multiple replacements. ........ r58998 | raymond.hettinger | 2007-11-15 14:39:34 -0800 (Thu, 15 Nov 2007) | 1 line Add example for use cases requiring default values. ........ r59000 | bill.janssen | 2007-11-15 15:03:03 -0800 (Thu, 15 Nov 2007) | 1 line add the certificate for the Python SVN repository for testing SSL ........ r59004 | guido.van.rossum | 2007-11-15 16:24:44 -0800 (Thu, 15 Nov 2007) | 8 lines A patch from issue 1378 by roudkerk: Currently on Windows set_error() make use of a large array which maps socket error numbers to error messages. This patch removes that array and just lets PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr() generate the message by using the Win32 function FormatMessage(). ........
